What you Missed this Week

This week, OpenSource VS AI: Reimplement anything for no deps VS Copyleft, Debian VS Redox OS policy.

Claude upgrade Sonnet and Opus to 1M context for all (+ some other new claude code features)

Yann Lecun Raising funds for its startup: $1B, an impressive number (Link)

My preference?

  • Can I run AI locally (Link), let you select your setup and see which model you can run with the number of tokens per seconds.
  • Chimera with LLM: copy / paste blocks to create a new LLM: Link
